Motorola goes after Samsung over Always-On Display
by Guest Jared Peters- 0 replies
- 33 views
Motorola introduced an active display way back on the original Moto X that would show you notifications on your device without having to actually turn the screen on. It was a pretty useful feature that’s since been ported to tons of other phones and even third-party apps. Moto’s latest Twitter marketing attack is bringing that […] Come comment on this article: Motorola goes after Samsung over Always-On Display Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/83c2d8f0bbbffbd4ac50450fe0ab5347._.gif News via TalkAndroid

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/68358169eedc694a7b71368c476fb752.jpgIt seems that we can't even go a week these days without hearing about yet another Tesla crash involving the company's Autopilot software. The latest incident comes to us by way of Texas where Model S owner Mark Molthan turned on his car's Autopilot feature while driving down a highway during ideal weather conditions. During a bend in the road, the Model S didn't adjust to the turn and slammed into a guard rail.

Apple is doomed… but don’t tell the massive funds that just dumped billions into Apple shares

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/7eab4083e4ebb8e3bd94a696265638c1.jpgApple is doomed! The iPhone is done! The high-end smartphone market is saturated! No one is upgrading to new handsets anymore! Tim Cook is lost and has no idea what he's doing! To glance over recent headlines and themes being tossed around by tech bloggers and many analysts, things are looking pretty bleak for the largest company in the world by market cap. Then, matters were made even worse when Apple caught investors off guard and posted a massive drop-off in iPhone sales during the March quarter this year. Apple's share price plummeted and doomsday preppers crowed that the end was in sight.…

Watch Sprint’s CEO try to carefully avoid saying ‘we throttle video’
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/98973e10031a77625da962b7c02edf41.jpgYesterday, T-Mobile launched a brand-new set of unlimited* data plans. At right about the same time, Sprint also announced a set of very similar data plans, and claimed that T-Mobile had "basically copied" Sprint's plans. Because this is business in the era of Trump, both CEOs then went on a mission to trash-talk each other. This resulted in Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure doing a spot on CNBC where he addressed T-Mobile's claims. But as part of the segment, Claure also answered questions about the limits on Sprint's data plans. What you're about to see is some of the most creative use of technical …

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/079d7a4cf619745818d75899c419c0b8.jpgRecent Daily Show alums have been doing very, very well for themselves lately. John Oliver's Last Week Tonight has been a big hit for HBO, and Full Frontal with Samantha Bee on TBS has been beloved among critics and viewers alike. Sadly, former Daily Show correspondent Larry Wilmore wasn't able to match the success of his two ex-colleagues and Comedy Central announced on Monday that this would be the last week of his show The Nightly Show. Wilmore was cancelled after just over a year and a half on air, but his former boss thinks that his show is anything but a failure — and he stopped by The N…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/66e26a5f4d48c96397c8b56ab43f3549.jpgApple released the last version of the iOS 10 beta on Monday, but the company sure isn't slowing down. Forget the normal cycle of betas being released every couple weeks on a Tuesday, because this Friday afternoon there's a brand new beta to go download. Beta 7 is available for anyone with a developer account, and whose devices are already registered in the beta program. If you're already running iOS 10 beta, the new update will be available in Settings-->Software Update as an over-the-air update. It's a relatively tiny 60MB download, which means this is probably a small security or bug-fix…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/2853f41c767c3f3f2dbe76b904111745.jpgAs anyone who has followed Donald Trump's unprecedented and unlikely run for the Oval Office, the man who popularized the phrase "You're Fired!" certainly has a way with words. Now no one would ever mistake Trump for a wordsmith, but when it comes to insulting people or summarizing complex topics into vague and curiously aggressive soundbites, there's uniquely Trump vernacular that we've never before seen in a Presidential race. With this as a jumping off point, the hashtag "#TrumpExplainsMoviePlots" emerged out of nowhere this week and quickly became a trending topic on Twitter. Suffice it to…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/091cb56808586edd21b7343f65bf7c08.jpgNot all Pokemon Go players have the time and resources needed to play Pokemon Go as it should be played – and the game’s bugs and lack of a proper Pokemon tracker don’t make things any easier – so it’s understandable that some players are resorting to cheats. After all, catching them all is so appealing! But Niantic doesn’t like cheaters, and it recently revealed that bans could become permanent when it catches players cheating. That makes using third-party Pokemon Go mapping apps, GPS spoofing and other sophisticated hacks rather risky. On the other hand, there are still plenty of cheats out …

There was a tiny bit of disappointment when Samsung announced the Galaxy Note 7 with only 4 GB of RAM.

Remember a couple years back when Sprint was theoretically interested in buying T-Mobile before the FCC quietly rejected the idea? Well, just because you get rejected the first time doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try, try, and try again, according to Sprint.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/e89f9c77c69f7f6c580fc53c508e09ee.jpgT-Mobile sent notices to the media on Wednesday letting us know that a big announcement was coming on Thursday morning, and the buildup continued all day as T-Mobile executives teased a "big secret" that would be "huge." T-Mobile and its outspoken CEO John Legere have a tendency to make every upcoming announcement sound as though it's going to be a game-changer, though to the company's credit, several of its past "Un-carrier" initiatives have indeed been game-changers. Thursday's news comes just one day after AT&T announced a shakeup that would see it do away with service overages on its n…

Self-driving Uber rides are coming this summer, and they’ll be free of charge

The statement may have seemed overly insensitive for that other dude in the car that made Uber a hit service. But Kalanick was also right.

Brazilian police have had problems finding any evidence the robbery happened and found certain discrepancies while investigating the matter. Authorities have gone so far as to prevent three of the four athletes that were allegedly robbed from exiting the country.

Since then, experts who have seen some of the stolen files believe that the NSA has indeed been hacked, with Russia being one of the prime suspects.
